With all the ridiculous and unreasonable actions Anet has done to Guild Wars 1(I'm sure there were a few good updates), I found myself uninterested in this game. Sometimes I wonder what is it that keeps the long-term pve players playing the same missions over and over. I'm positive that these players have their storage overstocked with ectoes, rare items, and mini pets and probably have over 1,000 platinum. But then again, they continue to farm and do missions. What's the point? Why do the same thing over and over? When I was doing Fast Faction Farm to get my survivor I observed these guilds that would gather together to do the same quest again and again just so they will get enough faction to buy a town. Enlighten me someone... What is the main goal for many long-term pve players out there? I know that these guys are probably doing this to get title but what will they do after they get "God Walking Amongst Mortal"? If they have everything they want in PvE, what else will they desire? 3 years of pve is... a little extreme. No offense to anyone.
So... just out of curiosity, are you going to buy Guild Wars 2? or are you going to move on?

History repeats itself,
I'm sure many of you have heard of this famous phrase. Such a cliche' phrase but it's so true if we look back in retrospect. If we all know that the same thing (For the players who have played this game for more than 4 years, you guys know what I am talking about when I mention "thing") will most likely to occur in Guild Wars 2, then why do you guys want to spend your money on it? Just curious!

Guild Wars 2 will be like Guild Wars 1, heck that's why they call it Guild Wars 2. You all will be playing the same game over again and you will have to deal with Anet over again. Sure there will be new game mechanics and other contents but 50% of the game will be like Guild Wars 1. You will end up doing missions over and over and have tons of money again. You will have to face skills nerf and other good stuffs that you have seen for the past 3 years from Guild Wars 1. The question is, then what after that?

Sometimes I wonder how long can a person stick to the same game.

I think I'll try the Beta of GW2 out and if i don't like it, I'll move on.

But to address your premise, I think that a lot of people continue to PvE because of the social interaction and enjoyment they get out of playing with friends. I'm more of a PvP player currently, but I still PvE when I want to play with friends or my guild.

Probably, didn't really like some of the other mmo's out their. And talking to friends and such is half the reason I still play.

Why do I pve, it is fun, relaxing, and I don't have to deal with people while doing it.

Wait and see on GW2.

If they go with the way they did Prophecies through Nightfall then I will buy it and be happy. If they do it the way they did it in Eye of The North then I will buy it and not be happy. I'm going to move on no matter what because I been playing this game for so long. I'm interested in Diablo III now. Let's just hope they don't make the game how Eye of The North was made.

I will not move on to GW2 because of all the whiners this game has. I have never seen so many people cry over PVE skills. I mean do you actually NOT want to enjoy this game? Do you want it to be so hard it’s not enjoyable? I like playing THROUGH the game. If you think a skill is broken don’t use it. If you want the game to be a challenge, don’t use a certain skill, bring a different group, play in HM, etc....so NO I’m not moving on and I have pretty much stopped play GW because of the ridiculous nerfs.

On your first question: I'm aiming for GWAMM, filling my HoM, playing with alliance. After that, I'll see what will take my interest.

On your second question: Yes, I'm planning to move over to GW2, though I don't care if this will happen in 2009 or 2011.

On topic, I will buy or "move on" to GW2 if I enjoy the beta. If they don't let me into the beta.. I'll base my decision off forums, if I hear what I like I will buy it.
